Yep--here it is

Did an ancient nuclear war kill life on Mars? Conspiracy theorists claim to see a 'mushroom cloud' on the red planet

*shakes head*

What a day

It did take two tries, but I did get my passport application in. I should get it in about six weeks. I even took a fairly nice photo that YKWIA described as 'perky'. Afterwards I went by the pharmacy and got medicine for three people, then went and got some food from Texas Roadhouse and ate with YKWIA and A. YKWIA and I watched some YouTube videos that were wonderful as they debunked a lot of conspiracy theories, and then I decided to head on home about 8:30 or so. I'm just now sitting down and deciding what to do next. Given that I 1) need to do notes, 2) could have some fun watching videos, or 3) am so tired I could just go straight to bed, I am somewhat in a quandry. Notes will probably be pushed to tomorrow night, although, as usual, that's last minute. What I really want to do is take a shower, put my jammies on and get comfortable, maybe listen to some music for a bit. Basically, I need to relax. There were lots of frustrations today and a great deal of traffic to navigate, as I think I spent my day, about 9:30-6:30 running full tilt.

For tomorrow, I plan on:

1. Going to the farmer's market (for real this weekend)
2. Doing some laundry (at my friends' house if possible, and then the hand washables at home later)
3. Getting the car washed and detailed (A is treating me to this, which is great)
4. Doing game notes

That's doable, I think. For now, though, I'm going to listen to my plushie cat that plays 'Soft Kitty', get into a sleep shirt, and go into the bedroom for a bit. Maybe I'll even read for a bit. I have the latest (and last) of Charlaine Harris' Southern Vampire Series (the one 'True Blood' is based upon, with Sookie Stackhouse as the main character) and I'm interested in how she'll end it. :)

Boo!

Another video from the geniuses behind SomeGreyBloke. And even though he doesn't actually talk in the video, the expressions speak volumes. I have seen way too many conspiracy wingnuts on YouTube. They've done an excellent job satirising the type.

(And I feel I should point out the satire just in case anyone thinks I support anti-Masonic sentiments. Since I do actually work for an organisation that is funded by just such a fraternity, I wouldn't want anyone to misunderstand. Yes, sad that I should feel it necessary, but after all, they put 'caution: contents hot' on coffee these days, too, you know?)

My favourite part (other than the ending) was the shots of 'I love you' gestures in American Sign Language interpreted as Satanic. That's rich. :)
